Hi, #kidlit artists! I'm seeking a MG (ages 9-12) illustrator for a coming-of-age mystery story featuring friendship, adventure, and an elusive white wolf.
Would LOVE to find an Indigenous NA illustrator.
Respond here with images and a link to your folio. Please no DMs. Agents welcome to email.
Hi Mallory! I recommend looking at Dayle (@notdayle) on Instagram and tiktok, they’re Inuk and have a really appealing middle grade/YA drawing style. Best of luck on your artist search!
Hi, Mallory! I would love to be chosen for this type of middle grade story! I am actually working on a piece right now that features a wolf (though a little more scary, last picture is a WIP of course.)
I am not an Indigenous Illustrator but I am an Indigenous writer. Bluesky is not the place to look for Indigenous illustrators. Twitter and Facebook would be much more effective places to look for Indigenous Illustrators.
hola. here's some samples of my work, you can see more here: www.tiktok.com/@j_sanchez_g... i am a character designer, cartoonist and illustrator. hope you like my works :)
If the author is Indigenous and there's an email address for applications, I can share this call with the Indigenous Game Devs collective.
We have quite a few artists who could do this.
Hey ! Mallory , I am a freestyle artist and i can do Indigenous NA style work , let me know if you are interested and i can share some of the work i have done for my clients . Thank you
I can't think of anyone who is indigenous that fits the bill off the top of my head, but wanted to pass on the link for my agency look book. So many good illustrators there ktliterary.com/lookbook. I hope one day to get to illustrate MG myself too.
that would not be me but I wish you luck in the search, if you ever need a doodle style artist that looks for ways to make you smile 😊 I am the #kidlitartist for you 😊
#kidlitart 🎨 (hopefully these tags will get this seen by someone in one of my groups who would be an amazing fit 😊)
Hi Mallory! Hope you find the right illustrator for your project!
I'm not Indigenous, but just wanted to share a piece I did before with Inhabit books (they specialize in publishing books by and for the Inuit community).
Oh bummer, I’m only a quarter indigenous. And that’s Ecuadorian, so probably doesn’t count. Just as well, it’s literally been 25 years since I had art for children published.
Hi Mallory, I'm not indigenous but I do love studying and depicting details from different cultures. Here are a few relavant examples of my work and you can see more at: www.esprints.com . Thanks for taking a look :)
Hi Mallory! Thank you for the opportunity! @janinele.bsky.social was nice enough to let me know you were looking! I’m excited to put my portfolio forward. Please visit my bio for my indigenous status! www.jessieboulard.com
I'm not even from the American continent, but here's some of my work since I think an MG story with animals is up my alley. I certainly hope you can find an Indigenous illustrator for the job!
